Horrocks Veteran Posted December 5, 2007 Veteran Share Posted December 5, 2007 It's too dangerous to battle this alone. Take this: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadishTM Veteran Posted December 5, 2007 Veteran Share Posted December 5, 2007 :laugh: Get the latest Flash ActiveX install from Adobe's site, also get the uninstaller (this will also remove Firefox's version). Radish? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bawx Posted December 5, 2007 Author Share Posted December 5, 2007 Lol. Will do, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bawx Posted December 5, 2007 Author Share Posted December 5, 2007 Still crashes. WTFFFFFFFFFF. Obviously it's IE based. I really don't want to upgrade to IE7. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xDayan Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 Reinstall IE then or run it with out add-ons see if it still crashes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bawx Posted December 5, 2007 Author Share Posted December 5, 2007 I guess I'll install IE7, seems I have to. But a while ago, I went to Start > Log Off. And right before it logged out, an erro popped up with something about explorer.exe and it had a red circle and x. But it went away too quick. Then I logged back in, and Explorer crashes with no message. I just clean installed 2 days ago... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bawx Posted December 6, 2007 Author Share Posted December 6, 2007 IE7 installed, crashes fixed! ..whatever. Anyone know how to get rid of the Language Bar on the taskbar permanently, it always comes back when I install IE7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slimy Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 What do you mean by "it always comes back"? Right click taskbar > Toolbars > Language Bar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evolution Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 Which version of flash are you running.... I found that the latest betas caused IE to crash, so I went back to the final releases and they were fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bawx Posted December 6, 2007 Author Share Posted December 6, 2007 I mean, I uncheck it from the Taskbar, then everytime I restart the computer, it comes back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadishTM Veteran Posted December 6, 2007 Veteran Share Posted December 6, 2007 That option I've showed you in the screenshot is system-wide. Radish? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bawx Posted December 6, 2007 Author Share Posted December 6, 2007 Well seems it didn't come back. Thanks :) One thing though that worries me. My computer felt like it's days were seriously numbered, until right after I installed IE7, it feels really nice and smooth again. Nothings going wrong. It's like Windows was making my system all screwed up, forcing me to install IE7. Kind of like blackmail. They have control off me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadishTM Veteran Posted December 6, 2007 Veteran Share Posted December 6, 2007 IE7 is not so bad, runs pretty well here but Firefox is my default browser. Radish? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bawx Posted December 7, 2007 Author Share Posted December 7, 2007 Well, I was doing something today, running a game or something, went to Youtube, and bang, Explorer crash. Tried again a momnet ago, and Youtube crashes again now. This is bull****. I ****ed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bawx Posted December 8, 2007 Author Share Posted December 8, 2007 Yeah I've updated flash. Here's the error report for when it crashes Youtube, anything I can do with this information? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadishTM Veteran Posted December 8, 2007 Veteran Share Posted December 8, 2007 Err, you have malware according to that .DLL that caused the crash. http://www.prevx.com/filenames/75507957403...B1111P.DLL.html Radish? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bawx Posted December 8, 2007 Author Share Posted December 8, 2007 Well Ad-aware didn't find it, should I just do a Search on my computer and delete it manually? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadishTM Veteran Posted December 8, 2007 Veteran Share Posted December 8, 2007 I suggest you install Spybot alongside Ad-Aware. And run them in Safe Mode. Radish? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bawx Posted December 8, 2007 Author Share Posted December 8, 2007 Ok will do. I found that exact dll in the system32 folder. Says it was created in 1998 (pc is from 2003) O_o. Safe mode, be back in a little while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
